Hypomanganate

<p>In <a href="/facts/Chemistry/SrNqkGVm">chemistry</a>, hypomanganate, also called manganate(V) or tetraoxidomanganate(3−), is a <a href="/facts/Trivalent/ck7cHByj">trivalent</a> <a href="/facts/Anion/wrbwhF3z">anion</a> (<a href="/facts/Electric_charge/xxsBfmlB">negative</a> <a href="/facts/Ion/3bePpDna">ion</a>) composed of <a href="/facts/Manganese/j9ELd1TL">manganese</a> and <a href="/facts/Oxygen/acyn6o8r">oxygen</a>, with formula MnO3−4.  
</p><p>Hypomanganates are usually bright blue. <a href="/facts/Potassium_hypomanganate/wv8cLPH5">Potassium hypomanganate</a> K3MnO4 is the best known <a href="/facts/Salt_(chemistry)/lsSKwGpn">salt</a>, but sodium hypomanganate Na3MnO4, barium hypomanganate Ba3(MnO4)2, and the mixed potassium-barium salt KBaMnO4 is also known.   The anion can replace <a href="/facts/Phosphate/FDGVCxUG">phosphate</a> PO3−4 in synthetic variants of the minerals <a href="/facts/Apatite/f5tYvl1n">apatite</a> and <a href="/facts/Brownmillerite/E7YdCDW8">brownmillerite</a>.
